“…Plasmas provide a basis to achieve many different processes by merely changing background gas, frequency, voltage, current or composition of the gas mixture. [3,5,6]. Amongst the most versatile and most generally used are the rf plasmas and having in mind the market of modern electronic devices they certainly have the largest share.…”

“…One could perhaps argue that tat that level of phenomenology and almost complete lack of fundamental understanding and theory he could not do much more. However, even in the present day plasmas are often described by similar methods and a special issue of IEEE Transactions on Plasma science has been initiated by Mark J. Kushner to publish short papers where images are worth a thousand words and have to meet esthetical criteria as well (one example of a paper form one of those issues is given in [6]). Tesla's images and drawings would have been perfect candidates for such publications.…”

One of the main Interests in science of Nikola Tesla were gas discharges plasmas, their application in lighting and in production of ozone as well as their role in conduction of electricity through the atmosphere. In particular Tesla is well known as the first person to produce rf plasmas. Such plasmas in the present day constitute the main technology required to produce integrated circuits (IC) and have been essential in the revolution that resulted from IC technologies. In addition Tesla participated in studies of arcs especially arcs used as a source of light, corona discharges required to induce plasma chemical reactions and produce ozone and was involved in various aspects of gas breakdown and gaseous dielectrics. His ideas, level of his understanding and current status of these fields are discussed in this review

“…Our Monte Carlo simulation code, which had been described in great details elsewhere (Bzenic´et al, 1999;Petrovic´et al, 2002;Dujko et al, 2005), was used to calculate the vibrational excitation rate coefficients. We followed the spatiotemporal evolution of each electron through time steps in order to represent correctly the motion of electrons in external RF fields.…”

“…The calculation of electron transport coefficients was performed using a well-tested Monte Carlo simulation code. 25,26) The code has performed extremely well on all available dc E, dc E Â B, and rf E Â B benchmarks. We distinguish between the real-space (bulk) and the velocityspace (flux) transport coefficients by taking into account the nonconservative nature of collisions.…”

An effective Hamiltonian for a two-level system (TLS) which could model the interaction between a tunneling proton and the conduction electrons of a metal is investigated in a comparative way. In the conventional first-order Born approximation with plane waves, and for small-distance displacement of the tunneling particle, a simple correlation between the atomic motion and angular momentum change of the scattering electron is deduced. For such a displacement, and within a distorted wave Born approximation for initial and final states, the change in the scattering amplitude is expressed via bounded trigonometric functions of the corresponding difference of scattering phase shifts. The numerical value of this amplitude change is analyzed in the framework of a self-consistent screening description for an impurity embedding in a paramagnetic electron gas. The coupling thus obtained of the tunneling proton to a homogeneous electron gas is too weak to be in the range required for realization of the two-channel Kondo effect.
